Board moves to revive quarterly department reports and weighs hiring a communications manager
Summary
Supervisors agreed to revive quarterly reporting from department heads and discussed creating a full-time communications position to coordinate unified messaging; the staffing request would be considered during FY27 budget formulation.
Board members at the Feb. 12 retreat emphasized improving communications and consistent internal reporting to 'tell the story' of county policy decisions. Supervisors reached consensus that reviving quarterly reporting from department heads would help ensure consistent and timely information across the organization.
The group also discussed a potential full-time public information or communications position to coordinate external messaging. Board members and staff agreed the position would likely be deliberated as part of FY27 budget formulation rather than being adopted immediately.
